SCRANTON (AP) — Scranton police have arrested one member of the Crips street gang and are searching for another in the killing of a Lackawanna College student who was fatally shot after a party near the school's northeastern Pennsylvania campus.

Police told The Times-Tribune of Scranton Friday that 18-year-old Ryan Harding is considered armed and dangerous.

Twenty-two-year-old Rahsan Crowder died at a hospital Sunday morning after suffering gunshot wounds to the chest and thigh.

Investigators say Crowder and a friend attended a party before walking to a nearby intersection where they passed Harding and Marlon Clotter, who started an argument.

Police say Harding pulled out a gun and fired once and then again after being encouraged by Clotter.

Clotter was arrested Thursday and charged with first-degree murder and other counts.
